One-Sheet (27" x 41")
Very Fine- on Linen
Columbia, R-1972

Rarely is a reissue poster more highly treasured than the original, but this is one such example. In the 1969 campaign, the studio chose to play down the "biker flick" theme, with only a day dreaming Peter Fonda in profile, no motorcycle in sight. As the film was a chopper-thundering success, when paper for the re-release was launched in 1972 the studio showed no further hesitation, capitalizing on the famous image of Fonda and Dennis Hopper rollin' down the highway.

Before linen backing, the poster was folded. There are touchups to the borders and along the fold lines. The poster is now quite presentable.

Dennis Hopper and Peter Fonda gave the US '60s counterculture its cinematic voice with this low-budget road movie about a pair of bikers roaring across the American Southwest and South. Significant success with younger audiences sparked the "New Hollywood" movement of the 1970s.

Estimate: $500 - 1,000
